Advil+John Malkovich=Tokio dress up

Hello my fiscal friends! I see you have come back to another magic carpet ride with me. Today's fiscal topic is sickness. I'm talking the serious stuff: the common cold. I have been possessed by this monstrosity many times including now. Sometimes I hope that God will heal me, but then that doesn't look too good so I take 1+ Advil (singular: Advi?). I had to cancel my session at the local pottery barn to make a cheese dish out of clay. Looks like Ma's not getting a mothers day gift! Instead I strayed from my frugal ways and splurged (keep in mind I was not in the right mind set)! I went onto my local itunes and discovered many movies! The first I watched was "Burn After Reading." I enjoyed the ruggedness of George (Jorge?) Clooney's beard. However I did not enjoy the baldness of John Malkovich. This baldness had ruined my Halloween plans. I was "Being John Malkovich" but since his hair (or lack of!) has gotten in the way, my plans have been kicked in the shins. Over all an A+ movie. A fiscal movie: D-. 
As for music, my ex-best friend LeDrone sent me the strangest link. It is addictive and it is upsetting. It is Tokio Hotel dress up. I don't know how to feel about this. Does anyone? Should Tokio Hotel get dressed up? Shouldn't they be writing more songs so that maybe one day they can sit next to someone who went to the Grammys? Still: they are classic. Even stiller: the main guy sounds like a girl. I don't know what to think. I don't know if I'm thinking. Maybe it's the Advil talking. 
Goodbye and good luck,
Your fiscal friend.

I'll bring the potato salad cuz it's a potluck

You want to know the deal? Well, I'll tell it to ya straight: the Grammys. The people that were nominated...well if I was hiring the performers it would have been 50+ times better. This is what the invite would have looked like:
Hello. You are invited to the Grammys. I hope you can come. It is potluck. 
There are many current/hip performers. Here I have listed them:
Tokio Hotel
Ashlee Simpson
Zac Efron 
An extra from the Broadway hit "CATS"
Bill Cosby/Bing Crosby
Vanilla Ice
Nick Lachey
Sanjaya Malakar
Tito e Tato (Dario+Roberta)
I Pquardo

This is just a sneek peek mind you. I hope you can make it. The cost is $35 worth of potato salad (I will judge them and then choose the winner by a letter in the mail). The Grammys will be O.K. Try not to show up late. I will greet you at the front. If you can't come that's ok. 
Thanks, 
Me (Director of the Grammys)

This is the best lineup ever. If the people of the Grammys would realize that they're doing it all wrong, maybe the Jonas Brothers wouldn't forget their lines. 
Katy Perry had a fruit basket explode on the stage but she just went along with it and called it her "set." If I was directing it, her set would have had cherry chapstick everywhere like in the song. Now THAT would be a spectacle. 
Now if I was running the Academy Awards it would most certainly not be a potluck. Mickey Rourke would spike the punch and Sean Penn would bring milk. Meryl Streep would doubt that I could run the show and I would say, "You know what Meryl? I really doubt you! I am sitting you next to Kramer, but I will warn you I invited his brother and they are both nominated. It will be Kramer vs. Kramer at this ceremony. It's been a long day and I just want to get back to my prairie home, companion. Just give me the quick adaptation of your speech, but ultimately you should speak to Sophie, because it's her choice who wins." 
Then she would be speechless.
With another fiscally appropriate post, bye.
